- Abstract
Objectives: to identify perceptions and actions performed by nurses in Primary Health Care included in the Antimicrobial Management Program. Method: Survey-type study, with 112 nurses, recruited using the snowball technique. Data were collected with a questionnaire prepared by the authors, via Google Forms®, between October and November 2020 and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: 74.1% are unaware of the existence of antimicrobial management in the units where they work; 92.9% believe that nurses should be involved in these actions; 44.7% during their consultations investigate recent use of antimicrobials; 63.4% carry out a survey of the history of allergies and 59.8% continue treatment with antimicrobials after hospital discharge. Conclusion: actions corresponding to the management of antimicrobials are incorporated into the daily life of primary care nurses, but the perception and effective performance of the professional are still incipient, pointing to the need for educational interventions on the subject.
